Stay in a shiitake mushroom farm and learn the whole process of growing mushrooms. You will learn about all the process how to make it, pick it up yourself, and in the end indulge yourself with a tasting. You will arrive at the mushroom farm and you will directly meet the farmer. After the presentation, you will walk through the farm to see the shiitake mushrooms and all the equipment and special techniques for harvesting. This is a true experience, so you will have a workshop about ” mushroom inoculation” and you will pick your own shiitake mushrooms. The farmer will teach you how to taste shiitake mushrooms, and explain what makes good mushrooms —and what makes the bad stuff, too. During the lunch on the farm, you will see all the mushrooms dishes: risotto and homemade sauteed. You will end this 2 days with a wealth of knowledge about production techniques, history, and the freshness, intensity, and variety that high-quality mushrooms can offer.
